Ferguson Shooting Shock: Witness Unwittingly Captured on Audio Corroborates Police Story

The New American
18 August 2014

The media have portrayed Ferguson teen Michael Brown as a hapless shooting victim of racially motivated police, but newly revealed eyewitness audio refutes that narrative and indicates that Brown was, in fact, the aggressor.

While Christians, Yazidis, and other minorities are being slaughtered by the Islamic State jihadis in the most brutal of ways, the U.S. media has been obsessed with the Ferguson, Missouri, police’s shooting of teenager Mike Brown. It’s portrayed as an example of how black youth are unfairly targeted by mostly white law-enforcement agencies. But now an eyewitness conversation previously unnoticed in a video of the shooting’s aftermath has been brought to light — and it completely contradicts the media’s politically correct narrative.

Truth matters.

Look at Zimmerman as it turned out... Zimmerman’s case was tried in a court of law - and he walked. Justice was done.

Why care what the hysterical press thinks about this? You don’t care what they think about us, do you? Our system was set up so we would be tried by a jury of our peers - not by liberal elites and their sycophants in the press.

No stores were looted ‘in memory’ of young people slaughtered in Chicago this week-end. Ever wonder about that?

The news media believe they are judge jury and executioner.

When the time comes there won't be enough rope to deal with news journalism properly.

I heard a guy last night being interviewed - he said he can't confirm it, but he had heard from sources that the cop is still in the hospital with a broken eye socket. I'd heard previously, it was a broken nose. An Eye Socket Fracture (Fracture of the Orbit) is a very serious injury. It can cause double vision, decreased vision or blurry vision, and difficulty looking up, down, right or left. If MB was coming at him, the cop absolutely did not want to take another blow of any sort to the face with either that eye socket or broken nose injury and he knew if MB got to him, that was going to happen. If it was a fractured eye socket, the 4 shots that were off mass could have been because he wasn't seeing so well & as MB got closer, he was able to hit him with shots that stopped him. Frankly, if it was the eye socket injury, I would imagine the cop was fairly desperate to keep MB (all 300 lbs of 'gentle giant') off of him.

Guy #2 could help stop all this now if he got on the news and said “I SAW IT- STOP RIOTING - THE GUY RAN TOWARDS THE COP”

He can. So far his account isn't lining up with the physical evidence. Brown's parents made the mistake of believing him, and asked for an independent autopsy. Now the results of that are out and belie the dirtbag's statements. Because it's an independent examiner, the DOJ couldn't put a lid on it, and now it's in the wild.

Actually, it wasn't. George Zimmerman's entire life was turned upside down. He lost his wife. He was/has not been able to find a job. George Zimmerman will never be the same.

And yes, he was tried in a court of law, but that should never have happened because he had violated no law. And it was only the integrity of the jury that saved him. An action that surprised the prosecution and judge.

Good point.

I wonder if we'll see confirmation of the extent of his injuries any time soon.

The MSM, which is majority White, is doing its best to stir up racial violence. Why?

Because they are scared to death. Many live in luxury or at least very comfortable prosperity mere blocks from an enclave like Ferguson, or other "communities" much, much worse.

All these media/celebrity/leftwing darlings---think of Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski---are fully and fearfully aware that when the urban SHTF they will be simply more food and fodder for the mobs rampaging toward the really good stuff on the upper East Side.

And so they pose and pander and beseech on a daily basis hoping that a stupid thuggish slob like Michael Brown will remember them, and spare them, rather than dragging them through their limo window and putting them wantonly to his good use.

I’m still reserving my opinion but, it troubles me that he was shot from the front 6 times, two in the head and by accounts was chased down and possibly shot again while down.

Now, it wouldn’t bother me one bit if this person had broken into a home or had used a weapon to rob you and after going down so much as flinched.

So, we’ll have to see what the final report is.

Sharpton warned that we would be hearing all kinds of things that would besmirch the wonderful young mans’ reputation. I’d love to see the police connect that hulk to the beating of a hot dog vendor. It seems there is video footage of that also. This pos wasn’t anything but a thug.

Oh, he'd be toast. They'd go after him like Islamic militants go after a Christian convert. I remember when a black woman spoke to a newspaper about George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin, and she said George wasn't racist, Trayvon looked and acted like the thugs who had been breaking in around the neighborhood... then she asked that her name not be used because she was afraid of retaliation by other blacks. The biggest thing holding black Americans back is their tendency to police each other and demand a sort of "tribal loyalty" above and beyond all else.

This morning on Fox they were calling them demonstrators instead of protestors. I’m trying to figure out why. I think it keeps coming down to this: what are the demands? In the south it was integration and riding the bus without being sent to the back. The “community” now has most of its people on food stamps and other forms of welfare. This is basically a temper tantrum like you could see a poorly raised three year old holding.

Methinks the first store was looted as retribution for getting Brown arrested. Seeing their fantasy come to life, and not caring _why_ the looting occurred, others jumped in and propagated the looting - leveraging the fact that if enough criminal activity happens at once, the police just stand aside.

Chicago would have as much or more looting if criminals got their act together & acted en masse and overwhelmed police response, rather than acting individually which allows overwhelming police response.

It troubles me that you are troubled by what the dudes friend lied about.
